Overall, I’d say a step back but the positives are quicker precip and cooler 850s at onset. Precip starts in DC by 12z (0.1” already fallen by 12z in DC in the 18z run vs the 0.1” line SW of Manass at 12z run).. 850s slightly colder at the start. Surface starts a touch colder in places but its a warmer run at the surface overall than 12z. Looking at the verbatim 10:1 snowfall maps, definitely cut back...2.5” runs through DC vs 4.5” at 12z.
